Earning Patterns Of Mexican Workers In The Southern Region: A Focus On Nonmetro/Metro Distinctions, Rogelio Saenz

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

The last few years have witnessed a tremendous change in the geographic location patterns of the Mexican population in the United States. The rural South represents one of the areas that have seen a noticeable growth in the Mexican population over the last few years. Unfortunately, data necessary to examine the social and economic adjustment of Mexicans in this area are not available at this time. This analysis uses data from the 1990 Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) to examine the earnings patterns bf Mexican-origin workers in the South. The sample used to conduct the analysis includes 9,509 Mexican-origin workers …

College Graduates In The Nonmetropolitan South: Origins And Prospects, Robert M. Gibbs

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

This study documents the regional origins of the college-experienced population in the nonmetro South, using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, 1979 Cohort. As of 1994, the nonmetro South had generated over half of its own college-experienced adults between the ages of 30-38, a higher rate than that of any other region. Although the results of logistic regression estimates show that nonmetro southerners were less likely to attend college, those who left the region for college were more likely to return than other regional migrants, especially after age 30. In addition, the relatively low demand for college-trained labor in the …

Operasi Pengendalian Moneter Yang Berbasis Suku Bunga Dalam Mencapai Sasaran Inflasi, Doddy Zulverdi, Erwin Haryono, Wahyu Pratomo, Wahyu Agung Nugroho

Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking

Beberapa penelitian yang telah dilakukan di Bank Indonesia menyimpulkan bahwa strategi kebijakan moneter berbasis pengendalian uang beredar (quantity targeting) telah semakin sulit diandalkan karena merenggangnya hubungan antara besaran-besaran moneter (uang beredar) dengan variabel-variabel ekonomi riil. Perenggangan hubungan itu dipicu terutama oleh inovasi instrumen-instrumen keuangan dan pergerakan modal antarnegara yang sangat cepat. Kenyataan tersebut mendorong munculnya pemikiran untuk mengembangkan strategi kebijakan moneter berbasis pengendalian suku bunga (interest rate targeting).

Black Women's Health: A Content Analysis Of The Journal Of The American Medical Association, The American Journal Of Public Health, And The New England Journal Of Medicine (1989-1998), Tonia Marie Burkett

Dissertations and Theses

According to the National Vital Statistics Report (1998), Black women age 45-64 are ten times more likely than white women of the same age to die from diseases of the heart. They are five times more likely to die from diabetes. The goal of this study was to examine how articles published in leading medical journals between 1989 and 1998 accounted for such differences in health outcomes among Black and white women.

The explanatory content of the articles was analyzed and coded according to four types of attributions: genetic/biological, cultural/behavioral, structural/socioeconomic and alternative. Each type of explanation derives from different …

Comparing A Hyperspectral Monte-Carlo Approach For Simulating Water Surface Reflectance Signatures Based Upon Radiative Transfer Theory: Simulating Clear Water & Caribbean Sea Bottom Types, Charles R. Bostater Jr., Manuel Gimond, Matthew Campbell

Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications

A homogeneous water column hyperspectral Monte Carlo modeling approach is compared to an analytical solution to a radiative transfer model system for irradiance. Both mathematical models and the solution approaches describe the transfer of irradiant light in a homogeneous medium. The analytical model has been previously used to describe the transfer of irradiant energy in a homogenous water column, with and without fluorescence source terms as well as a direct specular or a collimated irradiance source term. The response of the water surface reflectance under solar irradiance or an artificial collimated light source is thus modeled. Synthetic reflectance signatures generated …

Layered Analytical Radiative Transfer Model For Simulating Water Color Of Coastal Waters And Algorithm Development, Charles R. Bostater Jr., Lisa H. Huddleston

Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications

A remote sensing reflectance model, which describes the transfer of irradiant light within a homogeneous water column has previously been used to simulate the nadir viewing reflectance just above or below the water surface by Bostater, et al. 1,2,3 Wavelength dependent features in the water surface reflectance depend upon the nature ofthe downwelling irradiance (direct & indirect), bottom reflectance (in optically shallow waters) and the water absorption and backscatter coefficients. The latter are very important coefficients, and depend upon the constituents in water and both vary as a function ofthe water depth and wavelength in actual water bodies. This paper …

Looking To The Future ... Distance Education Issues In Nebraska, Nn21 Distance Education/Outreach Action Team

Nebraska Network 21: Publications

The Nebraska Network 21 (NN21) Action Team on Distance Education/Outreach has studied a variety of issues related to distance education in order to better serve the people of Nebraska. Distance education has grown rapidly in Nebraska, but is clearly in its infancy. Many important issues still are being identified and are far from understood. The possibilities of distance education are yet to be fully realized. But in a state with a small, spread-out population such as ours -- perhaps in any state -- it would seem that distance education holds great promise for making many forms of education accessible to …
